While each department has slightly different policies and procedures, many requirements are the same between departments. A good place to start in getting to know your job is to review your job description. This lists the percentage of time estimated for each duty area and provides a description of the required duties. The CNRS Administrative Handbook is updated each year and is a valuable tool in understanding the academic department. It is available on the CNRS Administrative Share folder on your computer (open by going to: Start, Run, \\cnrs-file and clicking on cnrs-admin).</p><p>Following is a list of departments you will work with to run a successful academic department. Also following are several important duties and instructions (or places to find them) on how to complete each task. The most important thing to remember is that you cannot make a mistake that can’t be fixed. Ask questions, take notes and just do your best. </p><p>DEPARTMENTS AND PEOPLE </p><p>Academic Personnel Services – Contact x5086.

Recycling - A resource for students, faculty, and clubs to avoid unnecessary purchases of school supplies and a donation service. The most popular items for drop off and pick up include pencils, paper, notebooks, binders, and dividers. ROSE is located inside Warren House 53, between the Campus Apartments and Gist Hall on Laurel Drive and is open M-F during the Spring, Summer and Fall semesters, 8 AM to 5 PM.

The option to schedule these exams is available for students with disability in need of special accommodations. They also have a machine for processing scantron forms. </p><p>CLASS SCHEDULE </p><p>You will work with the department chair each semester to build the class schedule. Following is a step-by-step guide to creating a schedule, keeping in mind that each department does things in a unique way. </p><p>1. Print the previous semester’s schedule (fall/fall or spring/spring) relevant to the term you are working on.</p><p>2. Locate your department’s faculty workload reports to determine which courses will be offered and by whom.</p><p>3. Your department chair and faculty will meet to discuss and determine the day(s), time(s) and courses they will be teaching for a given term. Keep in mind that some courses are only offered once a year while others may be offered both semesters. Some departments use a white board and make a large grid of all the potential times and courses. Others use a paper scheduling grid and others use a wall in the department office with sticky notes designating times and courses. Use whatever method works best for your department. </p><p>4. Review the tentative schedule with your department chair.</p><p>5. Based on the planning tool chosen for your area, create a draft schedule using information you have been provided by your department chair and faculty.</p><p> a. It is important to review the schedule for potential large lecture (>72) conflicts with other departments as many departments are interdependent and require various prerequisite courses for a student’s academic program.</p><p> b. Ideally, no more than 50% of all HSU courses should be scheduled from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. (prime time). Labs do not count in this equation.</p><p>6. After you have had time to perfect your schedule, distribute copies to faculty for proofreading, potential conflicts and changes.</p><p>7. Begin inputting course times and instructors on PeopleSoft. Attend an open lab to do this in peace and quiet and also have access to assistance. Do not put classrooms in. Rooms will be assigned by R25. Review the PS scheduling guides for more information on this subject. The room descriptions handout is helpful in determining what features each of the campus classrooms has. 8. Make updates and post your final schedule in the department office for students so they can plan their next semester. Distribute final copies to faculty. You may want to post the final schedule on your website for easy access.</p><p>Use the scheduling guides and sign up for open labs and workshops. It can be helpful to build a sample time table for the classes to be reviewed by your faculty. You can also post a schedule of classes once you have things finalized. </p><p>DEPARTMENT COMMITTEES AND VOTING</p><p>Each department has an Initiating Unit Personnel Committee (IUPC) that meets to discuss retention, tenure and promotion and also to discuss part-time lecturers. The committee must be created by a vote and a chairperson is named at the first meeting of the committee each year. The committee should meet each semester to consider applications for the part-time pool. The committee members’ names are submitted to the college office. A sample ballot is included in the appendix. You may also be asked to administer votes for other college and university committees and rules will be provided when that happens.</p><p>DEPARTMENT MEETINGS</p><p>Faculty and staff generally meet several times a month to discuss departmental activities. It is a good idea to keep minutes at these meetings and to note any required action items. If there are minutes from previous meetings, it may be helpful to review them to catch up on departmental events and discussions. </p><p>EMAIL AND CALENDARING</p><p>The campus email system runs through gmail (Google) and can be accessed from any computer via webmail.humboldt.edu. Each employee can also use the calendar feature and ASCs can “share” the department chair’s calendar and also calendars for conference rooms. The CNRS College-wide calendar is also shared with ASCs and can be updated with department events. Information about using the email system and calendaring is available on the ITS website. </p><p>MESSAGES ON UNIVERSITY NOTICES</p><p>Each week staff, faculty and students receive an email with university-wide announcements. In order to put a message on this system, you must follow these procedures at this website: http://www.humboldt.edu/its/unotices</p><p>TELECOMMUNICATIONS</p><p>Each ASC serves as a “key advisor” for their department. You must sign up for access privileges at their website. You can view the monthly bill, make changes to phones or network lines, purchase new instruments and much more. This website also has instructions for operating your telephone, adding messages, and more. </p><p>BUDGET</p><p>HSU uses the OBI software system to track all budget expenses. Training sessions are also offered each year for various processes. Many ASCs also keep their own records in an excel file to track all departmental expenses on a daily basis. Departments receive money from various sources, for example: OE money from the dean’s office; lottery funds; extended education funds; special projects and they all have their own codes. (See sample budget).</p><p>In PeopleSoft Finance, a financial activity is classified and identified through the use of a 33-character chartfield string. The PeopleSoft chartfield string is composed of 6 distinct chartfields: Account, Fund, Department, Program, Class, and Project. The chart of accounts website is very helpful in finding appropriate codes and you should bookmark this page. These chartfields have the following specific meanings in PeopleSoft: </p><p>Account (6 characters) What the dollars are used for. The most commonly used account codes for departments are as follows: 660001 Postage & Freight 660003 Supplies and Services 606303 Student Assistant 606001 Travel in state 606002 Travel out of state</p><p>Fund (5 characters) – Where the dollars come from. The most commonly used fund code is HM500. Extended Ed dollars and lottery funds dollars use other codes and you will be told which code to use. </p><p>Department (6 characters) – i.e. D20040 This code indicates who’s using the dollars; an organizational unit.</p><p>Program (5 characters) A further delineation if necessary. If no value, must be specified as zeroes.</p><p>Class (5 characters) A further delineation if necessary. If no value, must be specified as zeroes. </p><p>Project (6 characters) Reserved for construction projects. If no value, must be specified as zeroes</p><p>IRA FUNDS</p><p>The 2009-10 Budget, Policies and Procedures for 2009-10 Instructionally Related Activities (student funded) funds is helpful in explaining IRA funds. </p><p>LAB FEES</p><p>From 2003-2010 the University assessed a lab fee for all lab sections designated as C-13, C-16, or C-17. The purpose of the fee was to help defray costs associated with laboratory sections offered through the CNRS. </p><p>In 2010, the University approved a MSF (materials, supplies and facilities) student fee on all students. Distribution of this income will be shared between the Provost’s Office and the three colleges and distributed to departments for purchasing materials, supporting field trips and more. Departments will submit requests to the Dean’s Office each semester. </p><p>OPERATING EXPENSE Each CNRS department receives an operating expense budget for the academic year. These funds cover office supplies, equipment, field trips, speakers and any departmental expense. Jim Harding (x3560) is the CNRS budget analyst and can answer many budget questions. </p><p>SUPPLIES </p><p>ASCs are often responsible for purchasing office supplies, technical equipment and more. Some departments also have stockroom employees who purchase lab supplies. Office supply purchases can be made through Office Max or local merchants. Purchases can be made using the department procurement credit card (procard) or through the requisition process described in the Procurement Office quick guide. </p><p>Office Max – You will need to set up an Office Max account through the Procurement Office. All orders are now placed using the procard. You will enter account chartfields when reconciling your procard account each month. </p><p>Once you are ready to check out you will see "Credit Card Alias" with a drop down box beside it. Click that, select the alias in your profile (your last name) and go down to the bottom and click "Submit.” If you are using a Sponsored Programs Foundation procard, you will choose your last name followed by “spf.” Do not enter credit card information as Procurement has already submitted the card information to Office Max.</p><p>TEMP HELP/STUDENT WORKERS</p><p>Some departments have a budget for temporary help which includes student assistants, work study students and instructional student assistants. Human Resources has guides and forms for hiring these students and getting them paid. </p><p>TRAVEL</p><p>Any time a faculty or staff member travels for HSU business, a travel authorization form must be completed and signed by the department chair and the dean. The form must have the required attachments, i.e. faculty class schedule. It is then forwarded to the Provost’s Office for approval if the trip is being paid for with state funds. It is then sent to Accounts Payable who will file it in case an expense claim is filed and for liability insurance reasons. CNRS pays $500 towards one professional trip for faculty each year. Due to budget constraints, the travel budget is limited to faculty going through the RTP process. Following each reimbursed trip, a travel expense claim is completed by the faculty member, signed by the department chair and forwarded to the dean’s office for approval. Many faculty members receive reimbursement from grant accounts through the Sponsored Programs Foundation. They will also submit a travel expense claim along with a check request. A detailed guide to travel is available on the Financial Services website. </p><p>TRUSTS</p><p>Many departments have trust accounts through the Sponsored Programs Foundation. Funds are often received through donations. You can generate a monthly budget report through OBI and can use these funds as directed by the department chair. The foundation has instructions to assist you. </p><p>CALENDARS HSU GREEN AND GOLD CALENDAR</p><p>This calendar, which is available on the Humboldt calendars website, shows the academic workdays, pay periods and holidays for HSU employees and students. </p><p>ACADEMIC CALENDAR</p><p>This calendar, which is available on the Humboldt calendars website, shows a list of important academic related dates by semester including the start and end of the semester and grades due dates. </p><p>ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT EVENTS </p><p>Sample duties - varies by department – you can make your own list:</p><p>August Change message on phone. Update and print out office door cards for faculty (see sample). Compile and post office hours for faculty (see sample). Post class schedule (see sample). Set or confirm department meeting time. Print out advising list – assign advisors. Email to students welcoming them back (work with chair on this – see sample). Check supplies, order as needed. Assist with department retreat. Update bulletin board. Make sure lecturer transaction forms are accurate, make changes as needed. Make changes to fall schedule as needed. Hire student workers as needed. Arrange class field trips through Plant Operations. </p><p>September Large lecture/lab/disabled classroom requests due to the Office of the Registrar (see sample). Submit assigned time form to Dean’s Office. Begin working on inputting spring schedule on PeopleSoft. Copier count due to procurement – you will receive a reminder email. Work with chair to begin planning the next AY schedule of classes. Submit any changes to degree requirements due to Integrated Curriculum Committee.</p><p>COMMENCEMENT ACTIVITIES</p><p>Everything you want to know about graduation is at the commencement website. Many coordinators send reminder emails to seniors in their program to remind them of the various steps necessary for graduation. It is also helpful to remind them early in the year to make hotel reservations for their family members since local hotels fill up rapidly. Many departments hold receptions either before or after graduation and often this planning falls to the ASC. One option is to involve the student club for your major and give them the responsibility of hosting the party. This has worked well for many departments. It can be fun to take pictures of the graduating seniors and post them on the bulletin board. Likewise, it is helpful to conduct an exit survey for the graduates and to get contact information for the future. You will receive additional information about the CNRS commencement from the college office beginning in February.</p><p>DEADLINES</p><p>The Office of the Registrar will provide a list of academic deadlines each semester. See sample in the appendix. The University Administrative calendar is available for viewing through your Google calendar and includes all deadlines. There are other deadlines associated with retention, tenure and promotion and these are included on the personnel action dates schedule. </p><p>FACULTY</p><p>Many faculty questions will be about Faculty Center and you can direct them to the helpful website. The Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching (CELT) is another good resource for faculty and they hold trainings and a variety of events. </p><p>Faculty members often have questions about creating syllabi and what must be included. Refer them to HSU’s policy on syllabi. </p><p>FIELD TRIPS</p><p>The CNRS Field Trip Policy must be followed for each field trip. For an overview of the electronic field trip authorization process see http://training.humboldt.edu/doccenter/FTA_Process_Overview.pdf </p><p>PERSONNEL </p><p>APPOINTMENTS/SEPARATIONS </p><p>NEW EMPLOYEES Human Resources has a helpful new employee check list.</p><p>NEW DEPARTMENT CHAIR When your department elects a new chairperson, there are several changes that must be made:</p><p>- Telecom – complete a telecom service request form to change the directory and to make any physical or network phone moves.</p><p>-Websites - change chair information, 'department' contact email & phone number, etc) -Accounting and Foundation - update signature authority forms</p><p>-Hall Directory – update -Change Nameplate (through Plant Operations)</p><p>-Signature Authorization (Payroll form)</p><p>-Building Coordinator – let Plant Operations and UPD know about any changes in building coordinator LECTURERS Lecturers are usually part-time faculty members who receive teaching assignments on a semester or annual year basis. There are many rules concerning lecturer appointments and it is your department chair’s job to know and follow these rules. Academic Personnel Services has trainings and guides for recruiting lecturers as well as creating, printing, and revising contracts. Depending on the size of your department, this can be a big part of your job. http://www.humboldt.edu/aps/deptresources.html </p><p>ACADEMIC STUDENT EMPLOYEES This includes Teaching Associates, Graduate Assistants and Instructional Student Assistants that are hired by campus departments or hiring units to perform a variety of tasks such as teaching, grading and tutoring. These students are hired through Academic Personnel Services and vacancy announcements for these positions must be posted on the APS Academic Student Employment Opportunities website. </p><p>Teaching Associates: Currently enrolled or admitted CSU graduate students with part-time employment offering practical teaching experience in fields related to their advanced study. They teach university courses and may also assist faculty or teaching staff with various professional and technical activities. Work assignments are closely associated with their program of study or the academic department in which they are enrolled. Distinguished from the Graduate Assistant and Student Assistant by assignments that primarily involve classroom and lab instruction. </p><p>Graduate Assistants: Assists a regular faculty member or the teaching staff with various professional and technical duties associated generally with the subjects or programs in which the assistant is doing graduate work. GA’s provide professional non-teaching assistance to faculty members. Their work may involve supervising students in a classroom, workshop or lab; training students in the use of equipment or other resources; assisting faculty with research and preparation of course materials. For more information see the classification and qualification standards for GA’s.</p><p>Instructional Student Assistants: Under supervision, ISAs perform teaching, grading or tutoring duties. </p><p>Each of these categories of employment has its own set of rules for recruiting and hiring available on the APS website. Of course, they also have their own appointment forms. </p><p>STAFF AND STUDENT ASSISTANTS Human Resources has all the forms and instructions for recruiting and hiring staff and students. This same site has separation forms and information and forms for benefits. </p><p>ASSIGNED TIME</p><p>Each semester APS requests an assigned time form showing any assigned time for faculty. Basically, assigned time is when a faculty member is being paid for special assignments or committee work. It also includes (on a separate report) excess enrollment assigned time for classes with more than 72 students. A full description of assigned time is included in the CNRS Administrative Handbook. APS also has a guide on their forms page with codes and guidelines for assigned time. </p><p>END OF EMPLOYMENT When an employee retires or quits, a separation form and a separating employee clearance form must be completed. If the employee had payroll signature authority, you must also complete a PR 10 to delete that authority. </p><p>PAYROLL</p><p>Each month the ASC collects absence report forms (PR54) from all employees who used vacation or sick leave, jury duty, personal holidays or furlough days. The department chair approves these forms and they are sent to payroll with a “header” sheet, supplied and sent to the department by payroll each month. </p><p>RECRUITING/SEARCHES</p><p>Academic Personnel Services handles recruitment and searches for faculty. Follow their handy guides.</p><p>RETENTION, TENURE AND PROMOTION</p><p>Each department has approved standards and criteria for retention, tenure and promotion (RTP) of their tenure- track faculty. The HSU Faculty Handbook also outlines personnel policies and procedures for RTP. </p><p>Personnel Action Dates – these dates are posted by APS each year and affect tenure track faculty who are pursuing retention, promotion and tenure. The Dean’s Office will send out reminders and a calendar to each department and your department personnel committee will be responsible for ensuring these deadlines are met. </p><p>PLANT OPERATIONS</p><p>These are the folks who make sure things work around campus. They handle repairs, custodial needs, construction projects, vehicle requests, keys, yard maintenance and much more. </p><p>KEY/ACCESS CARDS</p><p>When faculty or students need a key to access an office, classroom or lab you will complete a key request form (for actual keys) or email [email protected] for key access cards. John Koontz, x3646, is the locksmith. Once the key request has the required signatures you can send it through campus mail to Plant Operations. The key will be ready in a couple of days and the employee can pick it up in person at Plant Ops by showing their HSU ID. Be sure to keep a list of employees who have keys checked out so that they are returned on time. </p><p>REPAIRS/MAINTENANCE/VEHICLE REQUESTS</p><p>Plant Operations has a variety of forms that can be filled out to request vehicles or to request maintenance. These are all available, along with instructions, on their website. If you need to contact your custodian, call work control (4475), file an electronic work request, or call the custodial supervisors’ office (5892) and leave a voice mail. These methods will allow a message to be received by the custodian that night or the next night. If you need to recycle a large quantity of paper or have a large amount of trash, contact work control (4475) and they will deliver the appropriate bins. </p><p>POLICIES Each department has a variety of policies that need to be kept in a central location and reviewed and updated regularly by the faculty. You will likely be the keeper of these policies and you should have a master binder available. Sample policy topics: teaching loads, travel, hiring students, etc. Most CNRS policies are available in the CNRS Administrative Handbook. </p><p>SCHOLARSHIPS</p><p>Many departments have student scholarship funds and the ASC must email students each year to announce the scholarship application period. You will likely also post fliers on the bulletin board and have applications available. Generally, a faculty committee makes the choice of which student will receive the scholarship. If the scholarship has financial aid requirements, i.e. students must have applied for FAFSA, you can contact the Financial Aid department to make sure the winning student has done so before announcing the winner. Be certain that the application has a place for students to sign approving release of this information. </p><p>STUDENTS</p><p>Students are the life blood of the university and you are often their first point of contact. Be friendly, helpful and kind. Think of your own children or yourself as a new college student and do your best to help them out. Most of the forms you will need for students are available here. </p><p>NEW MAJORS</p><p>When a student comes to your office to sign up as a new major, it is helpful to welcome them and give a little information about your major. Some departments have packets with a brochure, major requirements list, office hours list and anything else that might be helpful. Some department coordinators also take photos of the new majors to post on the department bulletin board. This assists the professors and other majors in recognizing new majors. The new student needs to complete the Major Change form and once it has all the signatures you can send it to the Office of the Registrar. It is helpful to keep a copy of the form. If the student is changing majors, they need a signature from the new advisor and the new department chair. Another nice touch is to send the new major an email welcoming them to the major and telling them who their advisor is and his or her office hours. (See samples of many of these items in the appendix). </p><p>ADVISING </p><p>While it is not your duty to provide advising to students, many of them will ask you for advice. You can direct them to the list of major requirements, or an advising rubric and let them know when classes are typically offered. Beyond that, direct them to their advisor. Many departments hold advising nights for their majors and provide snacks and advice. The evening or lunch time event is led by the department chair with all advisors present. This is a good time to help new majors to feel connected with the group. Faculty members are able to print unofficial transcripts for students and may ask you for assistance. Direct them to Faculty Center. </p><p>ASSIGNING AND CHANGING ADVISORS</p><p>All new majors need an advisor and often you are the person who assigns the advisor based on the current advising load of your faculty. This can be done on the Advisor Change form and sent to the Office of the Registrar. However, at the beginning of each semester you will often have new majors who did not bring a form to the office. For these students and to change advisors, you can follow the handy procedures in the Assigning Advisors document. </p><p>Students who are at HSU through the National Student Exchange program are assigned an advisor from the advising center. </p><p>CHANGING GRADES</p><p>Faculty can (and do) make mistakes in recording grades and these can be corrected by a “Change of Grade” form available at the Office of the Registrar in the SBS building. These forms must be picked up in person by showing staff or faculty ID. </p><p>EMAILS TO MAJORS</p><p>There are several ways to send emails to all majors (or a select group). One way is use the Bulk Email CRN log in at https://accountcenter.humboldt.edu:4443/pls/reports/f?p=121:1 You can then use a specific CRN, subject code, major, classroom or instructor to designate who the email goes to. The specific instructions are located in the appendix of this document. </p><p>The other way is to request a report via PS called U_BULKMAIL which will provide you with an excel file with all majors, minors, class, etc. and their email addresses. You can then cut and paste the email addresses into the bcc section of a new email and send out your message. This method allows you to send attachments and also to sort your majors by year. </p><p>PERMISSION NUMBERS </p><p>There are several occasions when a student will need a permission number to add a class. One is for classes where instructor approval is required, such as independent study, field trips, educational assistants and more. Another occasion is when a class is full and the professor is willing to let in extra students. Faculty are able to issue permission numbers from their “faculty center” once at least one student is registered. However, they are unable to obtain permission numbers if no students are registered. You can get these permission numbers for them by following these procedures. Always be certain you have approval from the faculty member to give a permission number to a student. Best practice is to have the faculty member give out the number. </p><p>STUDENT CLUBS</p><p>Many departments have student clubs and they have their own set of rules and usually a faculty advisor. You may be asked for guidance from the students and it’s a good idea to know who the officers are. Often the president of the club will need a key for access to department facilities. Information is available at the Clubs and Activities website. </p><p>UNIT CAPS/MAX ENROLLMENT LIMITS</p><p>Students are generally allowed to register for 17 units during each scheduled registration period. In recent years, students have been limited to 13 units. This limit is raised to 19 units on or around the first day of the semester. Sometimes an advisor will ask that a student be allowed to take more than 19 units in a semester. You can then raise the unit cap to the requested number via this process. A student can also take a written permission to the Office of the Registrar and they can raise the limit. </p><p>STUDENT/COURSE EVALUATIONS</p><p>Towards the end of each semester, courses and instructors are evaluated. This process begins early in the semester when the ASC (with guidance from the chair) provides the dean’s office with a list of courses that require evaluation for that semester. The dean’s office then prints the evaluations and provides packets for each requested course. A faculty member, other than the instructor, administers the evaluation in the last few weeks of the semester and gives the completed forms to the ASC. When all course evaluations are completed, the ASC delivers the packets to the dean’s office for scanning. A results report is emailed to the Dean, department chair, ASC and faculty member once grades are posted. This report should be filed in the instructor’s personnel file. </p><p>TRAININGS</p><p>HSU has a Training and Professional Development center and they offer a wide variety of training sessions for staff and faculty. They also have many resource guides and videos available. </p><p>TRAVEL</p><p>The Campus Travel Manual is helpful in assisting with travel questions for faculty. All faculty and staff who travel must submit a travel authorization form that has to be signed by the department chair, associate dean and the vice provost (new requirement in 2011). </p><p>APPENDIX</p><p>Commonly used terms and programs you may not be familiar with: </p><p>Accessible Technology Initiative – A timeline and resources for HSU Accessibility. </p><p>BPG – Business Process Guide. A step-by-step procedure guide to a business process, i.e., how to complete a lecturer transaction form. </p><p>Doodle helps in scheduling meetings and other appointments. You may receive Doodle requests to attend meetings. </p><p>GWPE – The Graduate Writing Proficiency Exam required for all HSU students to graduate. </p><p>IRA – Instructionally Related Activities. Funds from student fees that are available for specific activity programs/courses.</p><p>Moodle is HSU's Course Management System. Moodle allows faculty to easily post course information, hold class discussions, communicate with students, and hold exams online.</p><p>Oncores is the HSU library online course reserve system where faculty can submit readings for students. Students must have a password to access. The password changes every semester. </p><p>Survey Monkey is a simple way to create surveys.

Please submit your department course offerings in the format on the reverse and, if possible, avoid TBA=s in the day, time and location areas. </p><p>Discuss the concurrent offerings with your chair and faculty. This is the ideal time to announce a new class or highlight classes for which you are hoping to increase enrollment – especially courses that have a workshop format and occur over a weekend. Edit the course descriptions for this bulletin -- the more interesting the course description, the more attractive it will be to community members! Please note: Due to the large number of courses submitted for concurrent listings, we will have to limit the number of listings and will choose the courses most appropriate to a community audience. </p><p>(Please review sample formats on back) </p><p>To ensure the accuracy of this data, please email the information as an attachment, or you can cut and paste the information directly into your email to me.
